Full service movers (moving companies that also transport) are required by the Department of Transportation to provide customers with the ability to purchase additional insurance coverages. Because moving labor companies do not provide transportation we cannot provide additional coverage options. However, there are several types of insurance that may be available to you for your self move:
  1. Homeowners and Renters Insurance - These coverages (notably homeowners) typically will cover damage that occurs during transit. It is recommended that you speak with your insurer to confirm the details of coverage.
  1. Third Party Insurers - There are insurance companies that will sell a policy specifically to cover household goods during a move. It is important to note that these policies tend to have a lot of exclusions and should be thoroughly reviewed before purchasing.
  1. Insurance from Truck Rental/POD Companies - Most truck rental, POD and self move transportation companies will provide insurance options for your items. These insurance coverages typically insure your household goods against loss due to fire and other natural events. Review the details of each insurance option directly with your transportation company before purchasing.

 A moving company that does not provide transportation is not required to provide any type of insurance or valuation coverage. However, we believe that a professional moving service should have some level of liability for the services provided. Therefore, we voluntarily abide by federal tariff laws to provide basic Released Valuation coverage on all moves, the same coverage that a full service moving company must provide. This is a default coverage of up to $0.60 per pound for damage to household goods caused by our movers while on location. This coverage is not insurance and is not value based. Additionally, the coverage has many exclusions which are listed in "Exclusions" below.
Moving labor companies do not transport your items and as a result, do not maintain possession of your items for the entire move. Because of this our liability for damages is limited to our time on site, once we depart your location we no longer maintain any liability for damages.
